I kind of agree but there are a couple of very cool 4-strokes that nearly make up for it.
It's the sad fact of so little base stock to build bikes from
. The MB100 in your Avatar is from 1978. That's 41 years old.
But I still have some crankcases just in case.
Don't you look at my accountant.
He's the only one I've got.
this is running?
Significant
Praise the Lord - we have someone posting on here something of significance in two stroke performance advancement.
Congratulations JB on the effort , and as the quoted improvement is totally believable I feel no need whatsoever to ask to see the dyno printout.
Now , if like some other Sin Binned member , JB had posted only an outside view and said it made 100Hp at 20,000 rpm some on here might end up getting nasty
after 2 years of asking , and waiting , and waiting.
Hell no, not me.
Ive got a thing thats unique and new.To prove it I'll have the last laugh on you.Cause instead of one head I got two.And you know two heads are better than one.
I wonder, is piston friction that significant, in a normal engine? 14 HP worth.
Ill bet the bugger vibrated somewhat.
Quite possibly piston friction is significant given the documented evidence of increased horsepower when oil is added to the mixture
Runned previous version. Had to remake on CNC with better precision. Finally want to rework again for longevility. Have clear vision how. My current dyno is limited to 35 hp, so I use propeller (moulinette) to estimate power and got only one HP point, not complete graph. Dont sure if stock muffler is optinal for this engine. This experimental engine made for customer who will going to order me 2-stroke star for amateur aircraft use.
For vibration. the masses connected to connecting rod together add 37 grammes compare piston. May be in next design I'll be able decrease this difference.
Frankly speaking I observe power increase in natural test but cannot clearly understand reasons.
All experimental engines which I made were preordered by customers.
Now customer happy with initial results and will continue experiments by himself using my "creuzcopf kits" = piston + rod + spacer.
I will modify this kits making it cheaper and more reliable in each iteration. One day I hope to make more radical design.
Here gas forces from one cylinder compensated by opposite one. This engine can be statically balanced to 0.
